ROR + Error nil.empty? while running code

My "Project" Table have invoice as integer attribute, Here I put nil object to this attribute in DB. During evaluation nil.empty? occurs. Code written at HAML extentions

- @project.each do |proj|
  =proj.invoice if !proj.invoice.blank? || !proj.invoice.empty? || !proj.invoice.nil?
  - @project_invoice=p开发者_高级运维roj.invoice

  =@project_invoice=0 if proj.invoice.blank? || proj.invoice.empty? || proj.invoice.nil

I receive this error while running code.

NoMethodError: You have a nil object when you didn't expect it! You might have expected an instance of Array. The error occurred while evaluating nil.empty?


There's a few standard tests provided by Ruby and rails that can help, but you usually don't need to use all of them at once:

# Rails provided Object#blank? method
nil.blank? # => true
false.blank? # => true
''.blank? # => true
[ ].blank? # => true

# Ruby provided Object#nil? method
nil.nil? # => true
false.nil? # => false
''.nil? # => false
[ ].nil # => false

# Ruby class-specific #empty? method
nil.empty? # => error
false.empty? # => error
''.empty? # => true
[ ].empty? # => true

In your case the test you're probably looking for is actually a different one altogether. The opposite of blank? is present? and it comes in very handy for situations like this. You can even collapse down both of your inverted logical tests into a simple ternary query:

- @project_invoice = proj.present? ? proj.invoice : 0

More verbosely it looks like this:

- if (proj.present?)
  @project_invoice = proj.invoice
- else
  @project_invoice = 0

The present method verifies that the variable represents a non-nil, non-blank value of some sort.


The second condition has a misspelled variable name. It should be proj, not projt.

That would cause your issue.


if the invoice column is nill, then !proj.invoice.blank? evaluates to false, and the next test is done, !projt.invoice.empty?

since invoice is nil, you have nil.empty? which is an error, as empty? can not run on nil.

ruby-1.9.2-p0 > !nil.blank? || !nil.empty?
NoMethodError: You have a nil object when you didn't expect it!
You might have expected an instance of Array.
The error occurred while evaluating nil.empty?

I think you are doing an overkill, since an integer should not be an array. I think you should just shorten it to only test blank?, as that catches an empty array too.


Is this is the code you are using. If this is the same code, I see a spelling mistake in the second line.

Can you try with

=proj.invoice if !proj.invoice.blank? || !proj.invoice.empty? || !proj.invoice.nil?
